On the evening when he discovers that he has been called up for the first time for the match of the stars, Julius Randle first plays as an All-Star (25 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists) but then ruins everything by ending up even expelled (for double technician) in the final seconds of a match that his Knicks miss in the third quarter, lost 39-26. New York also has 16 points from Derrick Rose from the bench but can do nothing against Steph Curry and his teammates.

The fans (2,000) have returned to Madison Square Garden and have seen fit to “provoke” Steph Curry. Bad mistake. The No. 30 of the Warriors responded with 37 points and 7 triples to score (out of 14 attempts) to the not too kind epithets reserved for him and Draymond Green by the blue-orange fans. “Whether it is two thousand or nineteen thousand, there is nothing more beautiful than silencing the opposing public”. Curry did it, with another performance of his own, including 6 assists, 6 rebounds and 2 steals.
